Apollon

[nimble prairie]

I write to follow Apollo's nerve.

What you did with Apollo is wrong!
He has been a nerve several times in the past.

And what you did today with the exploding jetpack makes Apollo as strong as a newborn on a battlefield.

A burst is enough to kill him, it's like a one-shot.

If you didn't want a flying operator, you shouldn't have created Apollo two years ago. So we would not have invested our resources in this operator.

Please cancel this nerve! Apollo was not cheated before this nerve. Now he's useless.

[modest linden]

It's true!!!
...
I couldn't believe how they killed Apollon. .. They didn't need to detonate his tank to lower its power.
...
They could have made it so that only occasionally, enemy shots would disable his jetpack's flight
...
that would have been enough.
...
And I say occasionally, not every time his propulsion is shot.

Apollon can shoot flamethrower while flying while other operator can't shoot flamethrower while dashing. You have the advantage 🤡

you have the advantage to see enemy on the Map in one fly while other operator can't do that. Think of it, the problem here is you pay for Apollon lol 😂 but it's free after a month of they release.

[cyan granite]

yeah no one forced him to buy apollon but after every update there's always this type of fools

[ionic girder]

Kids with no skills crying about Apollon

[lusty crane]

the only issue i have with this nerf is that it completely kills appollon's Explosive break talent. there is just no way to use that talent now.

But apollon did need a nerf yes

[half grail]

And JB doesn't???????

[nimble prairie]

I think just a breakdown of the jetpack would be enough.

@prime tinsel @worldly portal
Could you please react to this subject ?

[prime tinsel]

I get why you’re upset, Apollon did get nerfed, no sugarcoating it. He’s not as strong in fast-paced fights anymore. But that doesn’t mean he’s useless now. He’s still the only Operator who can fly up high, get a bird’s-eye view, and snipe enemies from spots no one else can reach. That high ground gives you a big edge, especially against melee fighters.

Now it just takes a bit more strategy. You gotta choose the right moment to launch, keep your eyes peeled, and avoid getting shot mid-air. It’s not as easy as before, yeah… but he’s still the king of vertical gameplay💯

[lavish ermine]

since jumping is so risky now, its only fair if we're able to do something that's worth that risk, so I think it will be reasonable if he could use special weapons while flying again. it will make his gameplay less of the annoying camper type

[nimble prairie]

Thanks for your reply @prime tinsel ! I really like Apollo and I've been up since he's been around. I often play with him... well, I often playED with him.

Now it has become so bad that almost nobody uses it anymore. Until now, it was already very vulnerable because its performance, except flight, is not very high (not many hit points, no improvement in the rate of fire or anything else).

Today there is no possibility other than hiding and shooting from a distance with a sniper or SMS.
It is even more unequal for its victims and, above all, much less pleasant for Apollo players.

You should see that nerve again and stop the jetpack explosion. A 10-15 second jetpack failure would be much more acceptable and much better for everyone's gameplay.

We are many players hoping that you will explore this track to make the game even more interesting!

[ionic girder]

I have to confess that even I hate those who play (played now lol) Apollon camping and shooting, and was frustrated about him being overpowered, but the latest nerf is just too much. Like bruh....

[nimble prairie]

@prime tinsel that's what I said. And even players who hate Apollo say that... 🙏
Thx for your help sis, you need to change this nerf. ♡

[nimble prairie]

@prime tinsel @worldly portal please answer to your players ♡♡

[pastel juniper]

I've just played BR these days and seen maps full of Apollons. No fear of exploding. No worries. Just Apollon on Apollon with Apollon in his bag.
I don't like that absolutely.

It is obvious they have just TOO MUCH ADVANTAGE that even the latest nerf didn't took that away.

[timid wharf]

jb is the most balanced op in the game

[half grail]

Then why TF is he so hard to kill?????

[timid wharf]

because people have made strageties and loadouts for jb hes an og

[timid wharf]

what are you trying to kill him with?

[lusty crane]

I have always used explosive break shotgun apollon. Totally unplayable now. There is no way you can get close to someone because there is a red circle indicating to everyone where you are going to land, that's fine... Now with the nerf, not only do they see you coming, one bullet and you instantly die. So the only way to play apollon is to snipe. boring and one-dimensional.

yes apollon needed a nerf but like this? cmon

[high viper]

Since this is a suggestion channel, let's come up with something to make Apollon more sensitive, but not completely knocked out. I'm following your conversations, but you're offering very few suggestions and ideas. I'll offer a few. Maybe someone will like it, maybe someone won't. Maybe someone will see a point of connection and come up with something else.

Three pictures. Apollon has 4 charges in his backpack and Zloy can only use 2 flips. Is that fair? Maybe it should have been start by reducing the number of jetpack jumps 4-> 2.

Another idea: Apollon can sit on buildings for a maximum of 10 seconds. Then he must change position, meaning he must move.

Another suggestion: Apollon can't sit on every building. Some buildings are allowed and others are not. Varying the placement would be difficult for Apollon.

Another suggestion: Apollon can only have one secondary weapon slot. If Pheonix can have three slots, Apollon could have one.

These suggestions lower Apollon's potential but don't knock him out.

If you have other ideas, please share them.

[lavish ermine]

Bro he is nearly dead, all he can do is camp like a chicken with using the nerfed snipers/sms, and if you remove that too he will basically become a faster rookie that can't put out fires, so he needs a buff to balance out the recent nerf,

Like being able to use special weapons while flying, so he's not just camping all the time, this also means that he will be very vulnerable while doing this, making it a high risk, high reward strategy.

Imo this both buffs apollon to usability and reduces the camping problem by giving players an insentive to move around.

[high viper]

@lavish ermine Hi. I made a suggestion along the lines of: bring back Apollon as he was, but make his life a bit more difficult. In my opinion, he was a very strong operator. Now Apollon has weakened significantly.

[nimble prairie]

Hi Goliat! Thank you for your message.
If you have read this right, you will see that proposals have been made, including the need to set up a jetpack failure for a few seconds rather than the immediate death of the operator.

I find your suggestions too restrictive, Apollo must be able to be effective anyway.
You can't compare Apollo's jump to Zloy and Valera's roll because jetpack jumping doesn't prevent bullets.

[keen finch]

I agree with one thing : apollon should never been created.
I understand the arguments but I am personally satisfied he is nerfed

[silk loom]

Actually Zloy and Valera rolls don't allow them to rise to the roofs...

Also despite the jumping in the air doesn't prevent killing by firearms it allows to quickly escape from them. And also immediately does jumping damage.
You know no other operator can damage enemies with "roll only".

Personally I'm totally agree with the nerf.

[nimble prairie]

Yes I think you agree because you don't play him 🫠

[sly sierra]

I would’ve been happy if I could control where Apollon crash landed so I could dive into enemies

[marble python]

Like it or not !! The fact of the matter and the problem is this game becoming such a scam. The developers have sold and then took so much away after so many invested. They have left only one solution and that is to either enjoy it the way it is now or leave it. That's why so many have left or hardly play anymore like myself. One thing is for certain and that is don't waste anymore money on the game unless you wanna end up disappointed when they nerf what you think they shouldn't. It's just like the real world ,they have to cater to the crybabies .

[lusty crane]

this nerf to Apollon really shows the team's real incompetency to a degree. Apollon now gets almost 90% of the time insta-killed when flying but they also kept his +10% range when flying.

So now, they are saying - "oh he's great when you use his flying ability but he also dies to anything bigger than a pebble"

huh???

[sly sierra]

Also the fact that his rocket jumps are delayed when you press it and stuff like the tamm can instantly take him out like you said.

[nimble prairie]

I noticed that the only Apollo that are still effective when flying are the ones with T10 and the Tamm with gold mods.

In summary, the gap between the very strong players and the middles has widened further. 😒
